unfortunatley my connector is not under the steering wheel like everyone elses its under the bonnet (otherside to battery) and it is also not like everyone elses.

Omega General Help / number one plug well

« on: 24 February 2008, 14:45:42 »

number one plug well (nearest driver) has just a little bit of oil in it. all others are dry as a bone.

should i go and do the whole head gasket? or is it just the crankseals?

any advice much appreciated.

Omega General Help / exhaust manifold 2.0 16v

« on: 21 January 2008, 18:04:04 »

hi all,

got hold of a exhaust manifold to replace my excisting one. quick question tho, as looking at the manifold at eye level the bolt on the far left has been welded in place and now is un usable, will this create a problem in the long run? i suspect it was snapped off and was a cheapo job.
any ideas?

Omega General Help / battery low?

« on: 21 December 2007, 07:12:03 »

hi, bought the car just a few months ago. if i leave it for a couple of days and go and start her shes fine, but if i sit in it with radio on for any amount of time the battery go dead. is to  do with not enough water in the battery for it to hold a sufficent charge or has the alternator gone up the duff.

getting tired of asking for a jump.

thanks for that, if i am having trouble sourcing a manifold, what is the most viable sollution?
they are gold dust, although buying a spare and repaire motor off ebay is prob the best option.
